Blaire Waldorf is my absolute favorite character on Gossip Girl. Serena is just too nice for me, I like a girl who lets out her inner, ahem*, you know, every once in a while So I was excited to see that Leighton Meester recently did an interview and spilled about her hot co-stars, what she does on her downtime, and her singing career.

On the album she’s recording:

On the clothes on set:

That’s a huge percentage of our conversation. You have to say the word “cute” about five times when you enter the set. “Oh, that bag is so cute. Oh, that headband is so cute.” Everybody comments on each other’s clothes. Even the extras really look great. Some of it is wardrobe but some of it is their own stuff. It’s New York. You have to keep up.

On Chace Crawford, Penn Badgley and Ed Westwick handling their heartthrob status:

Young woman are watching the show and they’re the eye candy. They’re taking it well. You can’t let it go to your head. And I haven’t noticed that yet, but there’s still season two.

On what the cast does between takes:

We’re talking about the scenes. But we have our inside jokes and our funny moments. We laugh and sing. We sing every single thing under the sun — but usually whatever is on the radio in the morning that we hear on the way to work. We should do a musical.

Leighton also mentioned that she’s the shyest of the whole cast. I would have never guessed! Click here to read the full interview.

Oprah!!!!!!! Mariah Carey performed her new single Touch My Body and sat down for a long interview with the Queen of Talk. She talked about her diet, her career, and plastic surgery (or lack of). Oh and PS, she wears the same jean size as she did in the 10th grade!

Beautiful Norah Jones recently opened up and talked about what it was like making her debut as an actress in My Blueberry Nights, alongside Jude Law, Natalie Portman and Rachel Weisz.

On not having planned on starting an acting career:

“It’s nothing I seriously thought of or even wanted to try. But the truth is I like to ham it up with my friends. The bad news is I’ve always been a bit of a shy performer. So I was more than a little bit nervous about doing a movie.”

On having no experience:

“The director welcomed my natural reactions. Honestly, I don’t know if I could be a great actress in a different situation, but it worked for this movie. It was such a unique film with a unique director that I just trusted him. He told me not to take acting lessons. He just wanted me to be raw and natural. So in many ways the entire movie was one big acting lesson.”

On her character, Elizabeth, whose heart is broken when her boyfriend leaves her for another woman:

“I think all girls will identify. Poor Elizabeth is very sad, but I didn’t want her to seem pathetic. Yet there is one scene where she’s on the street looking up into an apartment window where her boyfriend is having fun with his new girlfriend. At that moment, she really is the saddest girl on earth, which just breaks my heart. But we’ve all been there.”

On how crazy it was kissing Jude Law:

“It was an interesting situation and it was just plain weird. I had to kiss Jude about 90 times and I didn’t want to laugh, but it seemed so ridiculous. What in the world am I doing kissing Jude Law? He’s Jude … and I’m … me. We laughed a lot between takes. It was actually very choreographed, but there was beautiful music playing in the background. Now when I hear that music I think about kissing Jude Law.”

Aww, I love Norah and she sounds like such a sweet person. I’m definitely curious to see this movie and check out her skills as an actress. Something tells me she’ll do a great job
